Chapter 33: A Mighty Tribe
"Could it be that this valley is not actually a valley, but a real plain area, and that extreme distance, is it really a huge grassland? This direction should be to the south, the climate in the south is warm, but it is the best place for the grassland, so it is not bad!"
Swallowing his saliva, Chen Xu was obviously shocked by the scene in front of him.
Originally, he thought that this Stone Age was the age of the jungle, except for the jungle, there were no deserts, grasslands, and oases, all of them, but the scene in front of him seemed to break his cognition.
"That's it, let's take a look at the ape-man tribe first, even if there is a grassland, it is estimated that it is in an extremely distant place, with my current tribal power, considering these, it is too far away!"
After a while, recovering from the shock and sighing, Chen Xu dispelled some complicated thoughts in his heart, buried his head again, and continued to walk forward in the artemisia grass.
Although the artemisia grass is dry and hard, and the growth is relatively dense, but with the help of his strong internal breath, his body can always pass through the gaps of the artemisia grass, so the noise caused is not too loud.
The further he went, the more open the valley became, and the firmer Chen Xu's vision about the plain became.
It was only after a little further that he found that the valley began to shrink again, and the reduction was very large, and after a few miles, it narrowed to the point where it could only be passed by one person.
Here, however, the artemisia grass does not stop, but grows tenaciously on the road, through the cracks in the mountains, and continues to extend to infinity.
With Chen Xu's line of sight, it can be easily found that this mountain crack is not long, only more than ten meters long, and the other end of the mountain crack is rapidly opening up, and there is no need to think about it, it is a vast artemisia grass world.
But when he got there, he didn't go any further, because there was a small waterhole near the cliff wall, in a sparse area of artemisia grass.
Not far from the waterhole are many rocks falling from the cliffs, some large and some small, but when combined, they form a combination like the open-air buildings of later generations.
With Chen Xu's ear power at this time, he could clearly hear the continuous shouts of ape-man from the cracks of those rugged mountains and rocks, and if he looked closely, he could see some of the ape-man's body flickering.
"That's it!"
With a shock in his heart, he quickly determined his destination, and as soon as Chen Xu's body moved, he rose from the ground, quickly sneaked through the grass, and soon approached the rocky jungle.
Taking advantage of the sudden startle of birds in the jungle above his head, and the sound of the whole valley was heard, he aimed at a weathered stone peak, like an ape, and soon climbed up, directly to the top of the stone peak, and burrowed into a hole.
In this way, the scene of the entire rocky jungle fell into his sight, and the tribes in the rocky jungle were naturally revealed.
I saw that in the natural buildings formed by the rocks, where several thatched bushes had been cleared, there were several ape-men sitting in twos and threes, holding polished stone tools in their hands, resting with their eyes closed.
On a flat big stone not far from them, there were a few pieces of broken flesh drying, which were full of holes, which were miserable, no need to look, Chen Xu also understood that this should be the remaining meat of King Kong, and these apes should be the people in that hunting team.
After counting carefully, Chen Xu found that there were a total of fifteen people in this hunting team, and counting the two captives who were captured by him, that was seventeen people.
If the other hunting teams in the tribe were of this size, judging from the posture of two captives, there should be no less than three hunting parties, otherwise they would not be so confident.
His heart moved, and his eyes crossed the fifteen strong apes, and Chen Xu saw the other apes in the tribe, but these apes were not the same as he imagined.
Not to mention those sturdy male apemen, even those female ape-men, one by one, they are all abnormally strong, and looking at the muscle mass on their bodies, it seems that they are not inferior to the male ape-men in the hunting team.
Not only that, but what made him frown was that it seemed that each of these ape-men was holding a weapon, and when they walked among the rocks, they were all light and unusually light, as if they were walking on flat ground, so that the combat strength of these ape-men was almost conceivable.
What surprised him even more was that the highest status among the ape-men did not seem to be the strong ape-men in the hunting team, but the withered and thin old man who was comfortably lying in the sun under the service of several female ape-men.
This can be seen from the fact that the meat obtained from King Kong was first supplied to the thin old ape-man, and those vulgar ape-men seemed to be full of awe in the face of the old man's gaze.
This kind of vision is not unfamiliar to Chen Xu, because in his own tribe, he always enjoys this kind of gaze!
Thinking of the person with a special status in the mouths of the two captives, the ape-man who warned them not to approach the western hunting grounds, Chen Xu quickly understood the identity of this old man.
"Damn, although there are still ape-men in the stone cave who have not come out, but there are more than seventy apes in front of me, and these apes are all agile, and the most terrible thing is that there is an old ape-man who doesn't know the number of roads, is he the wizard of the tribe?"
"No wonder those two ape-man captives have such expressions, this kind of combat power, even if King Kong comes, you have to finish playing! The most important thing is that I didn't come here to kill people, if I kill them all, then there is still a meaning of hair? If you want to subdue them, you have to capture them alive, but looking at them like this, they don't seem to be very cooperative!"
"What should I do?!"
Gritting his teeth, Chen Xu didn't expect to encounter such a situation.
He clearly understood that this was not the real combat strength of this tribe, and although these apes in front of him were also strong and abnormal, they were still weaker than those in the fifteen hunting teams.
Obviously, they weren't the main people of the hunt.
In this way, there must still be some hunting teams that have not returned, if they all return, Chen Xu can hardly imagine the combat effectiveness of this tribe!
If he played sneak attack, he would definitely be able to kill this tribe, but if it was a head-on confrontation, it would not be too much, even fifteen strong apes in the hunting team could beat him into honeycomb coal!
However, if it is a sneak attack, this is a huge project, and if it arouses the vigilance of the other party, it will steal chickens and rice.
Not only that, but most importantly, he doesn't have the American time to slowly get rid of this tribe at the moment, and the chimpanzees under the cliffs are like a time bomb, and they don't know when they will explode.
If there were one or two more, Chen Xu would not have the confidence to resist, and there was no need for anything else, just one intact chimpanzee would be enough to wipe them out!
"Grandma's, I didn't want to, but I can't be blamed for this, brothers, ask for more blessings!"
A cold light flashed in his eyes, he looked at the terrain of this place, and looked at the dry barren grass in his eyes, many strategies flashed from Chen Xu's heart, such as what kind of encirclement to send reinforcements, sudden attacks, lure the enemy deep, feints and backattacks were directly abandoned by him, and in the end, there was only one strategy left, that is, fire attack!
Judging from the situation in this place, it only takes a fire to set fire to all the artemisia grass in the crevices not far from him, and when the time comes, the smoke of the fire will be everywhere, and these apes will have no other way to survive except to run out.
Unless they have the courage to break through the obstacles of the fire, rush to the crack of the mountain, and run to the other side, but for this, Chen Xu is not worried at all, although the ape man has some wisdom, but most of it is still the instinctive reaction of creatures, and the fear of flames is engraved in his bones.
Not to mention the ape-men, even a group of modern people are here, and they will also rout on the other side.
And what Chen Xu needed to do was just lead his deployment, wait around the mountain crevice on the other side, come out and catch one by one, as if he was a pig in his previous life, which was simple and trouble-free.
As for the submission process after the capture, this one is much simpler, grab a few thorns and kill them, and give the ordinary people in the tribe a full meal, and everything will be perfect.
This is the advantage of the Stone Age, you will never have to worry about how to persuade your captives to surrender, and the laws of nature will naturally help you get it all out.
After making a plan, Chen Xu didn't stay longer, so as not to be discovered, and if the other party was on guard, it would not be beautiful.
Quietly climbed down the pinnacle, took advantage of the apes' inattention, sneaked back to the place where they had been, followed the route they had taken to return the same way, and quickly walked through the artemisia grass.
After a short time, Chen Xu completed the evacuation, passed through the middle of the cliff wall with a ray of skylight, and re-entered the dense forest.
At this time, Ape Man One was still leading people to guard the edge of the pasture, and the captain of the ape had not brought the people he needed, and it seemed that it would take a long time.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xu thought for a moment, and decided to take this opportunity to go up the cliff to take a look.
After all, it's easy to start a fire, but it's more difficult to start a fire at the end of a section of the canyon, and now it seems that the only way to do it is to throw it from a high altitude, so you have to probe the cliffs on both sides of the canyon beforehand.
After making up his mind, Chen Xu ordered Ape Man No. 1 to continue to wait here, and if the ape captain returned, he could lead them around to the side of the dense forest first, hide, and wait for his return.
As for himself, he scurried into the dense forest again, this time, not to the mouth of the valley, but to quickly climb the cliffs on both sides of the valley in the dense forest.
I have to say that the vegetation on the cliff is very dense, and its density is almost richer than the hill where Chen Xu was originally located, and I don't know how it grows.
The dense vegetation is dotted with towering trees, and long vines with thigh-thick roots climb up the trees like artificial stairs.
However, more than that, it is the truncated long vine hanging in the forest, which provides sufficient borrowing for the agile characters, here, Chen Xu was able to imitate the ape Taishan, relying on the ape's strong arm strength and superb internal strength, quickly grabbed the long vine and climbed forward.
Its speed can reach almost 10 meters in an instant, and it is extremely fast.
